EMSER TILE

I was recruited and left another company to work for Emser. They promised training, and compensation levels that they never delivered upon. Training consisted of a few weeks working the sales counter, with no real emphasis on the specifics of what a manager would be held accountable for. Once training was complete, my supervisor was not even present to introduce me to the branch staff. At no time during my training did my supervisor ever visit and follow up on the training. The company is very operationally heavy and could use more staff in the individual branch locations. This would enable the managers to get off of the sales counter, and out developing additional business. The Branch Manager is really no more than a glorified salesperson. The branch is actually managed by the Operations Manager. This became apparent because no in depth operations training was even provided. How do you manage a person / position when you don't know the specifics of their job? The company does have some very good people working in a variety of roles. I will miss the interaction with the employees and customers, but not the frustration and lack of direction.

A word to the wise stay away from this company they are deceptive and you will be harassed  Daily  they sell this position in one regard and the truth of the matter is is you will receive five pages of accounts that are no good and be harassed by the assistant operations manager about where your sales are .
I just quit this job yesterday  management makes it miserable they will literally pull you out of a working sesssion with a client to go into office and listen to a daily meeting on the speaker phone they set unrealistic goals my first month on floor they expected me to write 177,000 and when you don't achieve it you are brought into the office and asked why and what are you doing to get there this was my very first month. 
Do yourself a favor and stay away it's a horrible position.  End it doesn't matter how many questions you ask in the interview as soon as you were hired they not only change the position but they change the starting hours and the responses it is what it is and when you say that's not what you told me it was  your Deemed a troublemaker.  The one asst manager has been shipped all over cause of his behavior it's liabable. So beware all that glitters isn't gold but Enders will tell you it is

Their corporate office will chew you up and spit you out. Empty promises is a thing with Emser. The company is pretty old-school and is not open to anything new. God forbid you are slightly nerdy or even a little bit fun! Forget this whole thinking-outside-the-box thing, your ambitions, or even having your own opinion. You will sure be let go if you even try to stand out. If you are cool with quietly sitting at your desk all day and taking all the others be rude to you, you might survive. Everyone, who has been with Emser for a few years, is either very soft-spoken or is VERY good at Game of Thrones. Emser's owners are really hands-on, and not in a good way. They are super stingy too, we're talking "Go to work on Friday after Thanksgiving" stingy. There are always whispers in the office and behind the management's doors; it's like walking on glass barefoot. No one will say anything about anyone, and the next day someone is let go right before Christmas. And you are sitting there thinking, "Wow....! That dude was actually amazing at his job but (supposedly) he slightly disagreed with this other dude, who has been with a company way too long, and they had to "take care of the noise".

I worked at Emser for almost 5 years and in the beginning I loved my job. After the first year you are beat up terribly by the operations regional manager and other higher ups. She will make you feel like the lowest form of scum on the planet and yes, everyone in the company shares this opinion. Their job is to basically lower your moral then leave. This company is great about making you feel bad about yourself and talking out of both side of their mouth. Emser use to have a grasp on what it meant on how to treat employees. Now you are strictly a number to them, replaceable too. If you're not a favorite of regional management, forget about being promoted. Smaller branches never get noticed. Emser is a firm believer of out with the old and in with the new. They will use you up and spit you out. Never felt like a manager, just a worthless associate who was micromanaged to death.

Emser is a good company as long as your one of the favorites of management. If your not don't ever expect to promote or be recognized for any reason. They preach customer service but treat their employees poorly. It's a lot easier to give great customer service when you don't think your manager is looking for anything, or nothing, to get rid of you to bring in one of their friends in your position. They pay well and that is why most people stay I think. In this case i would rather have less pay. Always have an updated resume handy with this company. You will eventually have to use it.

Although this company pays well and has excellent commission structure and 401k plan, the style of management is not conducive to improving the morale and growth of an employee. A typical day consisted of reporting to the main office and picking up samples for the week. You would have to meet clients daily and target key accounts to grow the market with. Operations managements as well as all the different managers that really one sales manager can do, made the job more stressful than it should. Co-workers weren't really team players as some would steal outside sales and mark them as house sales. The hardest part of the job was dealing with inflated egos but the most enjoyable part of the job was leaving the warehouse and actually seeing customers.

This company isn't a fly by night company. They're very strong and moving in the right direction. They pay well and expect much in return. Very fair, and a great supporting corporate class. 

The hardest part of the job is feeling confident in making a business decision that makes sense to the customers you deal with face to face and not having someone else override your decision based on how they feel business should be conducted. Not capitalizing on the amount of profit that is available based on the strategy to give everything for nothing. 

Most enjoyable part of this job would be the tremendous support you receive at the push of a button. There's really a lot of good people in this company!

The first couple months I started everything seemed good and like it was a great place to work, it wasn't until my 5th month in did I see the true side of everyone. That place is filled with negativity and terrible management. The few really great people who were there either resigned or were let go. New management sucks and doesn't know how to do their jobs. This woman who works there in the front office keeps drama going, HR doesn't do her job or helps the employees in anyway. There is a great deal of a lack of professionalism and the warehouse has animals running through it and some of them have died and their bones are under the pallets. The tile also has had black mold on some of the boxes. CALL OSHA on them mfs

You have to work all day everyday and if there is something that comes up you feel immense pressure to continue working. There is very little support from upper management but you are required to hit numbers every month. If you hit your numbers you are praised and if you muss numbers by even 1k you are going to be micromanaged and your job is on the chopping block. No job security what so ever, you should always be worried you are going to be fired or let go. You are essentially waking up everyday to work for your job. Training was non existant and was thrown into the fire with knowing absolutely nothing about the products.
